    The only survivor of the great Ligurian history is Monaco, founded by a Genoese noble family, the Grimaldis, who went extinct long ago in the male line, but refuse to die anyway, like the Romanovs.

    They tecnically were vassals of us: do you know the origin of the name ''Monaco''?

    The Earl of Piemont-Savoie assigned to Carlo Grimaldi, a famous genovese merchant, the task to liberate the Montecarlo citadel that was occupied by algerian pirates...the man entered into the citadel dressed as a monk, for hidden himself, and then killed the captain of the pirates.
    After this, the Savoyardes gave him the region as a manor, and the territory was named ''Monaco'' (monk) for this.

    Currently living in Venice. There's a very strong independentist sentiment here.

    La Serenissima was unconquered until 1798 and has a unique culture and, like most regions, its own dialect. It's wealthier than other regions, and wasn't adjoined to the rest of Italy with quite as much volition as certain other regions.

    Speaking even to academics from Veneto, they hint at either supporting or being indifferent to independence.

    Interestingly it seems to be the young, more trans-national student class that has more affinity to the rest of Italy, perhaps because they've interacted with their peers more.

    My flat has a Sicilian, a Sardinian, a Venetian, a Ligurian and a Lombard, for instance.

    Bellissimo inno, ma io semplicemente direi 'io preferisco il ketchip al sugo di pomodoro.' Rispinge ogni Italiano.
